Platinum 88
Quote

Grand Piano Sound Library
The E-MU Platinum 88 is a complete grand piano sound library for Emulator X and Proteus X. Using a meticulously sampled Steinway Model L concert grand piano, the Platinum 88 features twelve layers of samples for each of the piano's 88 notes: five layers with the sustain pedal up, six with the sustain pedal down, and a layer entirely dedicated to note-off sounds. Every note was recorded through its natural delay, enabling the Platinum 88 bank to be completely free of loops. The samples were then mapped to their proper key and velocity positions in Emulator X and Proteus X and programmed with Pedals and Continuous Controllers. The result is the Platinum 88 - the finest, most natural sounding piano sample library available. Also included are 1GB and 200MB versions of the piano for ultimate sequencing flexibility and optimized performance.

is anyone sure if the emulator x3 originally used e-mu products as authorization to run the app?  i dunno why but i vaguely remember reading that the x-board e-mu contrller could be used to authorize the emulator x software... i could be totally wrong im trying to confirm this now..

thinking further on this its probably the Proteus X2 sound module software that is what was able to be used/activated with the presence of any other e-mu products, pci or usb

if theres any readers that have e-mu products maybe you can help me confirm this because my e-mu 0404usb is dead

Emulator X3 was postponed almost a year, if I remember correctly, because they could not get their C/R servers going.

Emulator X2 used e-mu products as authorization.

There is an unofficial patched version without authorization (if the official authorization disappears forever).

the box of the emu 0404 pci card claims that theres hardware accelleration involved .. does that mean emulator x3 works better with an emu 0404 pci installed as the interface???? http://www.oldschooldaw.com/forums/index.php/topic,413

maybe?

Emulator X was able to use AUX in PatchMix DSP. But as far as I remember the drivers for 0404 were limited compared to the 1820 drivers and 0404 came bundled with Proteus X/Emulator X LE without using PatchMix DSP.

Maybe something was changed in the latest drivers, but I didn't have 0404, that's just a guess.

On the other hand, the PatchMix DSP has a limited number of effect memories. Emulator X3 has been optimized for a multi-threaded CPU, which no longer matters.
